Question Correction
Evelyn packed this box with 1 inch cubes. Which expression does not show how Evelyn can find the volume of the box?
- (A)6+6+6+6+6+6
- (B) 2 X 3 X 6
- (C) 2 + 3 + 6
- (D) 6 X 6
Answer:
(C) 2 + 3 + 6
Step-By-Step Explanation
In the diagram,
- Height = 6 Units
- Length =2 Units
- Width =3 Units
Volume = Height X Length X Width
= 6 X 2 X 3
=36 cubic units
Consider the options:
(A)6+6+6+6+6+6 =36 cubic units
(B) 2 X 3 X 6 =36 cubic units
(C) 2 + 3 + 6 = 11 cubic units
(D) 6 X 6 =36 cubic units
Out of the option, that which is not equivalent to 36 cubic units is:
(C) 2+3+6
Therefore, it does not show how Evelyn can find the volume of the box.
The answer will be 2x squared -8x
Answer:
x = 3; y = 70.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you set the two equations equal to each other you get:
22x + 4 = 14x + 28
This is a multi-step equation since the variable is on both sides of the equal sign. In order to solve any equation, you must use inverse (opposite) operations to isolate the variable and whatever you do to one side of the equal sign, you must do to the other. The first step for this equation is to get the variable on one side and the constants on the other. Subtracting 14x from both sides: 22x - 14x + 4= 14x - 14x +28 gives us 8x +4 = 28. Next, subtract the 4 from both sides to get: 8x +4 - 4 = 28 - 4 or 8x = 24. Lastly, divide both sides by 8 to get x = 3. To solve for y, simply plug 3 in for 'x' in either of the initial equations: y = (22)(3) + 4 = 70.
